Download or read book The Zen Manifesto Freedom From Oneself written by Osho and published by Fivestar. This book was released on 2023-03-17 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is time, ripe time for a Zen manifesto. The Western intelligentsia have become acquainted with Zen, have also fallen in love with Zen, but they are still trying to approach Zen from the mind. They have not yet come to the understanding that Zen has nothing to do with mind. Its tremendous job is to get you out of the prison of mind. It is not an intellectual philosophy; it is not a philosophy at all. Nor is it a religion, because it has no fictions and no lies, no consolations. It is a lion’s roar. And the greatest thing that Zen has brought into the world is freedom from oneself. All the religions have been talking about dropping your ego – but it is a very weird phenomenon: they want you to drop your ego, and the ego is just a shadow of God. God is the ego of the universe, and the ego is your personality. Just as God is the very center of existence according to religions, your ego is the center of your mind, of your personality. They have all been talking about dropping the ego, but it cannot be dropped unless God is dropped. You cannot drop a shadow or a reflection unless the source of its manifestation is destroyed.

Book excerpt: "...convincing and entertaining...many deep insights and messages about life...highly recommended." El Sun, Spain "...brilliantly conceived, with an appeal to a wide range of ages...not for one moment does it fail to absorb the reader..." Keith Gilley, The Inquirer In the mountain jungle of a Latin American country, where poverty and a history of oppression has blighted the landscape, Luis, a charcoal burner, terrorises the village of Rio Lejos. His cruelty and sudden violence is legendary, so when Hector, the shopkeeper, sees him coming, there is nothing for it but to caress his machete beneath the counter. Realising that not being beaten is a kind of victory on its own, he is forced to part with a parrot whose skill at imitating human speech is legendary. The parrot is no ordinary bird, having spent many years learning the language of mankind and bitterly satirising them at every opportunity. But now, having fallen into the hands of the cruellest Man of them all, he needs to escape. The humans have, as always, clipped one of his wings so that he cannot fly. The plan is simple: he must threaten, bribe or cajole the weather-beaten donkey of his new owner into an unlikely flight through the danger of cities and the jaguar-ridden jungles to a place he remembers from his childhood, a valley where there are no Men. The donkey, true to his race, is not easy to control. In matters of a problematic nature, he prefers the comfort of a kind of dream, in which he is neither awake nor asleep. Beaten and ill-used throughout his life, he has no illusions about magical rescues. The journey they begin together is full of obstacles and dangers. As they travel, they enter the lives of people, whose lives are as bitter as their own, and whose slavery seems to have no remedy. But when the two fugitives enter the scene, their lives are transformed forever. Who could imagine that a pair of animal pilgrims could awaken people to their own need for freedom? And who could know that the things most feared often turn out to be the blessing you long for without being aware of it? Nobody’s Ass asks the question, “What is freedom?” and then sets out on the journey that permits it to be found…
Download or read book The Wrong Side of Murder Creek written by Bob Zellner and published by NewSouth Books. This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even forty years after the civil rights movement, the transition from son and grandson of Klansmen to field secretary of SNCC seems quite a journey. In the early 1960s, when Bob Zellner’s professors and classmates at a small church school in Alabama thought he was crazy for even wanting to do research on civil rights, it was nothing short of remarkable. Now, in his long-awaited memoir, Zellner tells how one white Alabamian joined ranks with the black students who were sitting-in, marching, fighting, and sometimes dying to challenge the Southern “way of life” he had been raised on but rejected. Decades later, he is still protesting on behalf of social change and equal rights. Fortunately, he took the time, with co-author Constance Curry, to write down his memories and reflections. He was in all the campaigns and was close to all the major figures. He was beaten, arrested, and reviled by some but admired and revered by others. The Wrong Side of Murder Creek, winner of the 2009 Lillian Smith Book Award, is Bob Zellner’s larger-than-life story, and it was worth waiting for.

Download or read book Nobody s Home written by Arnold Weinstein and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1993-03-11 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nobody's Home is a bold view of the American novel from its beginnings to the contemporary scene. Focusing on some of the deepest instincts of American life and culture--individual liberty, freedom of speech, constructing a life--Arnold Weinstein brilliantly sketches the remarkable career of the American self in some of the major works of the past one hundred fifty years. Weinstein contends that American writers are haunted by the twin specters of the self as a mirage, as Nobody, and by the brutal forces of culture and ideology that deny selfhood to people on the basis of money, sex, and color of skin. His central thesis is that language makes possible freedoms and accomplishments that are achievable in no other realm, and that American fiction is a fascinating record of the human fight against coercion, of the kinds of maneuvering room that we may find in life and in art. This study is unique in several respects: it offers some of the keenest readings of major American texts that have ever been written, including some of the most significant works of the past decades, and it fashions a rich and supple view of the American novel as a writerly form of freedom, in sharp contrast to today's critical emphasis on blindness and co-option.

Download or read book Thumbing a Ride written by Linda Mahood and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1920s, as a national network of roads and youth hostels spread across Canada, so did the practice of hitchhiking. By the 1960s, the Trans-Canada Highway had become the main thoroughfare for thousands of young baby boomers seeking adventure. Thumbing a Ride examines the rise and fall of hitchhiking and hostelling in the 1970s, drawing on records from the time. Many equated adventure travel with freedom, but a counter-narrative emerged of girls gone missing and other dangers. Town councillors, community groups, and motorists called for a nationwide clampdown on a transient youth movement that they believed was spreading hippie sensibilities and anti-establishment nomadism. Linda Mahood unearths good and bad stories and key biographical moments that formed young travellers’ understandings of personal risk, agency, and national identity. Thumbing a Ride asks new questions about hitchhiking as a rite of passage, and about the adult interventions that turned a subculture into a moral and social issue.
